The poker-faced Walken character is at the center of this mildly entertaining look into the life of an insolvent ex-safe cracker. A journeyman film at best, the Walken character seems to care so little about his life that it is difficult for the audience to care creating a rift between audience and character and resulting in a story which is like warm beer: Flat, but satisfying if you're thirsty enough.
